God
I believe in god. Not the way people usually does. And I apologize if I ever offend anyone with what I'm going to say. Let's clear that up.
I believe in a single absolute entity, which may be called 'god'. But not as a person, nor animals or some other representatives. I think they're all misconceptions created by some 'storyteller' from ancient times. I see god as a spectator. I don't think anything that happens in life got to do with it, it shouldn't take credits or get blames. And you definitely don't depend on it.
Especially JC (no offense). People are buying this book too much. I didn't read it or give it a chance and I'm ashamed to diss it without accepting it first. But would you take a leap of faith down the cliff and let Jesus decide whether you live or die? I'm really sorry if this isn't the value taught in church. I might be misguided. The main point is:
I have a friend who believe in Jesus. She had a bad boyfriend. She blames god for it. Why can't you just end it? You have control of your own life. Well, she did. And of course, thanked god. But a week later, they got back together. And blamed god again. "god really hates me, why put break us up for a week and put us back again."
It sounds really ridiculous, right? Because you are the one who broke up with him, not god. You are the one who forgave him, not god. You are the one who gave him a chance to hurt you again, still not god.
God is just a motivation. You have to trust yourself and work for it. 'He' is not your excuse for living a lousy life. Don't say "god planned my life this way because the good parts will come later." You're lying to yourself. No good parts will come to you if you just lay around whining about it. Grow up.
